Linear guides get rack-and-pinion option
HPC Drives has extended its range of Drylin linear guides to include a rack-and-pinion option.
It will cater for high overhung load capacity on the output bore, typically 1,600N at 500mm and an axial thrust of 5,000N.
Output connection can be made via a large diameter, keywayed bore, either by conventional shaft or by fitting suitable bushes to allow for splined or trapezoidal leadscrew operation.
It is also possible to bolt directly to the output flange using the tapped holes around its face.
Manufactured from solid Aluminium, the gearbox's main body is 70mm thick and has a compact, neat design that may be mounted using through holes in its casing.
It has a 15mm input shaft and is available with a standard adaptor fitting that enables a size 56 servo motor to be mounted directly to it.
It has an output bore of 50mm, with an 8mm keyway, and a reduction ratio of 50:1.
Allowable output torque is 66Nm at 600rpm, 47Nm at 1,800rpm, and 114Nm is possible at slow speeds.
